Thick underline behind text
(7 answers)
Closed 1 year ago.
I'm using Foundation 6 (just a little bit of background) and in a project, several titles are styled this way:
the title with a blue border
You can ignore the brigther blue background. It's possible to make that border that covers the title using anything in CSS? I'm currently using this file as a SVG, but I know this is not SEO/acessible friendly, and I really think .svg is more a hack than the actual solution.
I don't know if the solution resides on:
border-bottom: solid 1px blue;
Or something else?
https://jsfiddle.net/32yahu0v/
h1::before{
z-index: -1;
content: " ";
width: 120px;
position: absolute;
padding-top: 20px;
border-bottom: 15px solid blue;
}
<h1>
My Title
</h1>
You can use border-bottom for that to work, but there will be a gap.
If you want the line to go through the the text, you could try and use a :before or :after pseudo element on the title
here is a codepen https://codepen.io/Spoochy/pen/QWGPoPZ
/* the styling that you actually need */
p {
position: relative;
}
p:after {
content: '';
background: blue;
position: absolute;
left: 0;
right: 0;
bottom: 2px;
height: 10px;
z-index: -1;
}
/* styling to make everything prettier and you don't need*/
body {
background: #29b5e8;
display: flex;
align-items: center;
justify-content: center;
min-height: 100vh;
}
p {
color: white;
font-size: 35px;
font-family: sans-serif;
position: relative;
}

Thick underline behind text
(7 answers)
Closed 8 months ago.
I am trying to use a background color on text only, which works fine on single lines, but when the line breaks in responsive mode it ends up looking like this:
Does anyone know what to add to make the yellow background line follow the text on mulitple lines?
This is my code:
.background-highlight {
position: relative;
display: inline-block;
color: #faf9f4;
}
.background-highlight:after {
content: '';
position: absolute;
width: 100%;
height: 10px;
left: 0;
top: 50%;
background-color: #cef230;
z-index: -1;
}
Thanks a lot in advance,
I have used box-decoration-break: clone; property for mainting the same design for multiple lines don't forget to add display: inline; to its child where background is added. in child I have used linear gradient you can generate according to you from here. you can chenge the position of green strip by adjusting gradient values from the site.
.background-highlight {
position: relative;
display: inline-block;
color: #000;
-webkit-box-decoration-break: clone;
box-decoration-break: clone;
font-size: 120px;
}
.background-highlight span {
display: inline;
background: rgb(206,242,48);
background: -webkit-gradient(linear, left bottom, left top, color-stop(11%, rgba(206,242,48,1)), color-stop(12%, rgba(255,255,255,0)));
background: -o-linear-gradient(bottom, rgba(206,242,48,1) 11%, rgba(255,255,255,0) 12%);
background: linear-gradient(0deg, rgba(206,242,48,1) 11%, rgba(255,255,255,0) 12%);
}
<h1 class="background-highlight"><span>The skippers escape</span></h1>
It is fault of pseudo element that is forced to break between two lines.
The cause is the way the effect is carried out, pseudo element ::before creates a single rectangle that has no way of splitting up to follow words flow. Posible solutions:
Make sure links never occupy more than 1 line. You can use
white-space: nowrap;
Redesign the effect applying box border to main element. For example:
.background-highlight {
width: max-content;
border-bottom:5px solid rgb(217, 255, 0);
}
<div class="background-highlight">THE SKIPPER´S ESCAPE</div>
Pseudo-element solution
Use the bottom-positioning value on the pseudo-element instead of top. This forces the pseudo-element to be positioned at the bottom, instead of 50%from the top. I used bottom: -10px as that is the height of the pseudo-element, so it aligns perfectly.
Read more on position values: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/position
HTML-element solution
Instead of creating a pseudo-element, you could opt to make an HTML element instead.
Make a parent container, apply flex to it so the text and the line will align.
Make the .line-element a block element, so it will break into a new line.
You can still apply position: absolute and position: relative on the .line and the h2 if you want to position it in another way. Or you could simply use e.g. transform: translateY(5px) to move the line up a bit.
.background-highlight {
position: relative;
display: inline-block;
color: black;
text-align: right;
}
.background-highlight:after {
content: '';
position: absolute;
width: 100%;
height: 10px;
left: 0;
bottom: -10px;
background-color: #cef230;
z-index: -1;
}
/* Without pseudo */
.nopseudo {
display: flex;
}
.nopseudo h2 {
text-align: right;
}
.nopseudo .line {
height: 10px;
width: 100%;
background-color: #cef230;
display: block;
}
<h2 class="background-highlight">The Skippers <br>Escape</h2>
<div class="nopseudo">
<h2>The Skippers <br>Escape<span class="line"></span></h2>
</div>
I don't know how is your structure but this might help.
We just need two div elements, one as a container to setup the width property and the text holder in this case I will use a h2 tag.
Just mkae the ::after pseudo element as display and the .background-highlight's width can be width: match-content or 100% in this case if you just want to cover the text use match-content if you want to cover the width of the .title element use 100%
.title {
width: 90vw;
text-align: end;
}
h2 {
text-transform: uppercase;
color: #374650;
}
.fullwidth {
width: 100%;
}
.match {
width: match-content;
}
.background-highlight {
position: relative;
display: inline-block;
}
.background-highlight:after {
content: '';
display: block;
width: 100%;
height: 10px;
background-color: #cef230;
z-index: -1;
}
<div class="title">
<h2 class="match background-highlight">
The Skipper's <br>Escape</h2>
</div>
<div class="title">
<h2 class="fullwidth background-highlight">
The Skipper's <br>Escape</h2>
</div>
Can I achieve a custom CSS border with a button at one end which looks like this
Without url(some image link)?
Note: I want so because when I want to change color, I have to manipulate image.
I have achieved using image JS Fiddle
#stretch {
border-image: url(http://akitech.org/img/border.png) 30 30 stretch;
}
The easiest way is to use CSS pseudo-elements to create the decoration (the circle at the left) and to mask the chamfer at the right of the border (the angle at which the border-right would otherwise meet):
div {
border: 10px solid transparent;
width: 250px;
padding: 10px 20px;
position: relative;
/* this property has to be set to change the border-color: */
border-bottom-color: #f90;
}
/* common shared styles: */
div::before,
div::after {
/* to ensure the pseudo-elements are rendered: */
content: '';
/* for positioning: */
position: absolute;
/* positioning the element with its uppermost edge
against the bottom of the element, against the
upper side of the bottom-border: */
top: 100%;
/* again, set to change the color of the ends: */
background-color: #f90;
}
div::before {
/* position against the left edge: */
left: 0;
/* move the pseudo element 10px up, and
10px left: */
margin: -10px 0 0 -10px;
height: 30px;
width: 30px;
/* making the pseudo-element a circle: */
border-radius: 50%;
}
/* masking the chamfer of the border-bottom's
right-most edge: */
div::after {
left: 100%;
/* making the height/width the same width
as the border itself: */
height: 10px;
width: 10px;
}
div {
border: 10px solid transparent;
width: 250px;
padding: 10px 20px;
position: relative;
border-bottom-color: #f90;
}
div::before,
div::after {
content: '';
position: absolute;
top: 100%;
background-color: #f90;
}
div::before {
left: 0;
margin: -10px 0 0 -10px;
height: 30px;
width: 30px;
border-radius: 50%;
}
div::after {
left: 100%;
height: 10px;
width: 10px;
}
<div id="stretch">Here, the image is stretched to fill the area.</div>
In order to have these borders adapt to the length of the text, either the elements you want to have custom-bordered must themselves be able to contract to the width of the text, either using float:
div {
border: 10px solid transparent;
position: relative;
border-bottom-color: #f90;
padding-left: 20px;
/* forces the element to take up only that space required by
its (non-floated) contents: */
float: left;
/* forces the floated elements to the next line: */
clear: left;
}
div {
border: 10px solid transparent;
position: relative;
border-bottom-color: #f90;
padding-left: 20px;
float: left;
clear: left;
}
div::before,
div::after {
content: '';
position: absolute;
top: 100%;
background-color: #f90;
}
div::before {
left: 0;
margin: -10px 0 0 -10px;
height: 30px;
width: 30px;
border-radius: 50%;
}
div::after {
left: 100%;
height: 10px;
width: 10px;
}
<div>text</div>
<div>longer text</div>
<div>much longer text</div>
<div>much much much longer text</div>
Or, possibly more simply, use display: inline-block:
div {
border: 10px solid transparent;
position: relative;
border-bottom-color: #f90;
padding-left: 20px;
display: inline-block;
}
div {
border: 10px solid transparent;
position: relative;
border-bottom-color: #f90;
padding-left: 20px;
display: inline-block;
}
div::before,
div::after {
content: '';
position: absolute;
top: 100%;
background-color: #f90;
}
div::before {
left: 0;
margin: -10px 0 0 -10px;
height: 30px;
width: 30px;
border-radius: 50%;
}
div::after {
left: 100%;
height: 10px;
width: 10px;
}
<div>text</div>
<div>longer text</div>
<div>much longer text</div>
<div>much much much longer text</div>
Or display: inline (these don't automatically force new-lines between elements, obviously):
div {
border: 10px solid transparent;
position: relative;
border-bottom-color: #f90;
padding-left: 20px;
display: inline;
}
div {
border: 10px solid transparent;
position: relative;
border-bottom-color: #f90;
padding-left: 20px;
display: inline;
}
div::before,
div::after {
content: '';
position: absolute;
top: 100%;
background-color: #f90;
}
div::before {
left: 0;
margin: -10px 0 0 -10px;
height: 30px;
width: 30px;
border-radius: 50%;
}
div::after {
left: 100%;
height: 10px;
width: 10px;
}
<div>text</div>
<div>longer text</div>
<div>much longer text</div>
<div>much much much longer text</div>
summary:
for simplist way to this question, should not using svg, pure css can draw the shape author expected very well cause it's a combination of cycle(border radius)+rect(thicker line), let's refer to the David's answer should be the easiest and most clean way to draw that shape under text.
//below is my debugging history and tries (i searched out many ways to approach it);
//though not good answers
I use background css attribute (not OP wanted) Op used border-image also valid.
<div class="custom-border" >SOME TEXT HERE</div>
<style>
.custom-border{
padding-left:20px;
width:200px;
background:url(http://img1.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20140224040010/shantae/images/b/bc/HGH_border_bottom.png) 0px 5px no-repeat;
background-size:contain;
height:150px;
}
</style>
later I realized OP might dislike using image traditional way, I re understand the
question is asking how to draw that shape in pure css and place it under the text and the responsive should be as flexible as the traditional way the svg shape will auto strech with the text placed on it.
after that, I've find some way to generate svg and place under text
see if it works for no image solution or you can get it improved based on fiddle
http://jsfiddle.net/hahatey/hsfxS/1464/
during the process, i've found this useful tool of generating svg from below reference url: http://svg-edit.googlecode.com/svn/branches/2.6/editor/svg-editor.html
But the flaw is it's still a fixed width solution, the line svg won't auto stretch.
Have found a unclean way to improve auto stretch though not in pure css responsive way.
but auto strech can be done by dynamically change below line
<rect stroke="#ff0000" id="svg_2" height="8" width="100%" y="27" x="40" stroke-width="5" fill="#FF0000"/>
where width="100%" or fixed value => width="function return value"; //
// during this try, i found a little bug, jquery seems unable to select svg or element inside svg? however svg element tag attribute can be written in backend languge so still valid.
//3.44
Another way without touching the inner "rect' element below "svg" tag, is to add a container to the whole thing, and using function to dynamically
assign width for the container;
like my attempt in this
fiddle: http://jsfiddle.net/hahatey/hsfxS/1468/
so at least the width can be dynamically calculated out by a function to calculate the text length of the upper text so the line will be able to strech if the calculation is accurate enough. There could be other ways to do svg auto strech with the text using pure css if other ppl find it.
Thanks.
5.02// since the author didn't say how complex the content is inside the container,
I've created a demo in pure css triggered effct --- auto strech the shape along with the text above it in below fiddle. but i said it sure has many limitations though looks similar.
http://jsfiddle.net/hahatey/a9z1kyx7/
my upper fiddle is only able to align correctly for singleline auto strech
I'm wondering if complex content (more than one line, there maybe a lot of block,inline mixed tag element inside which increases complexity for alignment) can also use css to do such decoration width auto adjustment without touching javascript or backend language.
On my website http://goo.gl/ok43H I'd like to add the small "+" icon next to each white text box (I made a mockup of what i'm trying to achieve here: http://goo.gl/ftRpZ ) but I have no idea how to do that.
What would be your suggestions?
Many thanks,
Here is the html code:
<div class="presentation-plusbox">
<p>Expertise dans l'industrie</p>
<p>blblablabla</p>
<p>blabla</p>
</div>
and here is the css code:
.presentation-plusbox
{
width: 500px;
background-color:#FFFFFF;
padding:10px;
margin-left:25%;
color:#000000;
margin-bottom:8px;
opacity:0.95;
filter:alpha(opacity=95); /* For IE8 and earlier */
-webkit-border-radius: 5px;
-moz-border-radius: 5px;
border-radius: 5px;
}
You can use the :before - http://jsfiddle.net/fgRRw/
div:before {
content: "+";
height: 30px;
width: 30px;
text-align: center;
line-height: 30px;
background: orange;
color: #fff;
display: block;
left: -30px;
position: absolute;
}
Just a note - :before is not supported in IE7 and below LINK
Define your + box as a div inside of .presentation-plusbox
Also add position: relative to .presentation-plusbox
Then apply the following css to the plus box
.plusBox {
position: absolute;
top: 20px;
left: -50px;
}
Of course, you'll need to adjust top and left to get it just right.
I haven't tried it, but that should work.
p { position: relative; }
p:after {
height: 20px;
width: 20px;
background-image: url('image.url.goes.here.jpg');
position: absolute;
top: 5px;
left: -20px;
}
I've coded my website for all browsers but of course IE has issues. Specifically only IE 7. I'm hoping to find a resolution to why it's behaving the way it is with two issues and what I can add so IE will display it properly.
My submit buttons are aligning to the bottom of their containing divs.
CSS for the SUBMIT button for the SEARCH field
#searchform { /*container widget */ position: relative; left: 15px; width: 97%; height: 30px; background-color: #f3f3f3; border: 2px solid #742222;}
#searchform label { display: none; }
#searchform input#s { width: 75%; height: 20px;}
input[type=text],input#s { margin: 0 10px 0 0; width: 60%; }
#searchsubmit{ position: relative; float: right; width: 30px; height: 30px; text-indent: -999px; background: url(http://averylawoffice.ca/img/SEARCH-submit.jpg) center; border: 0px;}
This CSS works in all browsers but IE version 7. Is there a way to make it top align without having to position absolute?
I've managed to move the SUBMIT button up (to the correct position) by left-floating the text-box.
.subscription_email {
...
float: left;
}
Same goes for the search text-box:
#s {
...
float: left;
}
By making those changes, the resulting presentation will be exactly the same as in Firefox.
I know it is possible to create a custom "tooltip" with the :hover:after selectors and to align this tooltip relative to the original element by marking the original element as position:relative and the tooltip as absolute.
HTML:
test
<span custom-tooltip="testing a custom tooltip" class="tooltip">
test
</span>
test
CSS:
.tooltip {
position: relative;
}
.tooltip:hover:after {
content: attr(custom-tooltip);
position: absolute;
background: black;
color: white;
}
However, I must use absolute values to position or size this :after element
top: 30px;
left: -30px;
width: 300px;
What if I want to make the element as wide as it needs to be (Percentages are relative to the parent element creating a large vertical box so I can't tell it to go width: 100%)
And centered under the parent (left: -50% results in it being moved 50% of the parent to the left, not centered)
Is this possible without javascript? (If not, are there some magic selectors or functions to get the width of this or that and calc() the correct values?
You can force the tooltip onto a single line by using white-space:nowrap. I don't know of any way to center the tooltip without forcing a specific width on both the tooltip and the item the tooltip applies to. Here's a general-purpose example (without centering):
<p>Lorem <span tooltip="Lorem ipsum">ipsum</span> dolor sit amet.</p>
And the CSS:
*[tooltip] {
position: relative;
border-bottom: dotted 1px #000;
}
*[tooltip]:hover:before {
content: attr(tooltip);
background-color: #000;
color: #fff;
top: 1em;
position: absolute;
white-space: nowrap;
}
Note that I'm using :before instead of :after. If you want to center the tooltip and are able to define a fixed width, you can use this CSS instead:
*[tooltip] {
position: relative;
display: inline-block;
text-align: center;
width: 200px;
margin: 0 -75px;
}
*[tooltip]:hover:before {
content: attr(tooltip);
background-color: #000;
color: #fff;
top: 1em;
position: absolute;
white-space: nowrap;
width: 200px;
}
Here, the item is given a fixed width equal to the width of the tooltip then negative left/right margins to collapse it back down to the desired size. Note the addition of display:inline-block and text-align:center.
This technique isn't practical for inline tooltips, but works well for buttons and "call to action" links.
.tooltip
{
display: inline;
position: relative;
}
.tooltip:hover:after
{
background: #333;
background: rgba(0,0,0,.8);
border-radius: 5px;
bottom: 26px;
color: #fff;
content: attr(title);
left: 20%;
padding: 5px 15px;
position: absolute;
z-index: 98;
width: 220px;
}
